[laughter] the premise was that this very socially precarious individual is the town crier for the nation's capital tuesday it says much about washington as the fellow that we called nike. the great book editor became interested in this subject but let's talk about how you saw this topic. basically what this would be is a journey into the world of the playbook that seems like a rickety proposition. >> also in the psychological level the experience of writing april 2010 was essentially writing about the world that we live in and did have it in washington and that was much harder hit a story i had ever done. a fish trying to write about the water a lot of people do it was there but people resisted it because we are the fish. it was a tough story. i have known mike for a long time, extremely private private, extremely powerful and that got done and then people started to wonder people have a sense of washington end of dinn

in fact, not a law of talk at all. he askeds me what committee assignments i wanted, i told him. he said he'd see what he could do. at the time, his voice was so soft, i could barely hear what he was saying. "afterwards", my colleague from illinois asked mer how it went. i said i don't know. the whole conversation lasted maybe ten minutes, he did not seem particularly pleased with my taking up his time. don't worry, he said. if harry didn't like you, it would only have lasted five minutes. that was harry. as observed, harry was not a schmoozer or backslider. he can did not regale you with long drawn out stories and did not appreciate long drawn out stories. despite the years he'd spent in congress, despite the power he wielded, his reputation as being the consummate washington insider, why came to realize was harry always remained something of an outsider in washington. which makes sense given the remarkable path of the senate taken, the path at least unlikely if not more unlikely than mine. there is a mention of harry's extraordinary path, an hour away everywhere.out our harry h

the question is, do we respect the law? a federal court has said the two nlrb members were illegally appointed. mr. cordray, unfortunately, was appointed on exactly the same day in exactly the same way. is the senate just completely lawless? do we not care what the federal courts say? i, i'm just stunned at -- [laughter] where we are. it's pretty clear to me that all the other nominees are highly likely to be confirmed. so what it really comes down to is that the majority leader is going to break the rules of the senate to change the rules of the senate in order to confirm with 51 votes three illegally-appointed positions. that the federal courts have told us are unconstitutionally appointed. that is the rationale for the nuclear option? that's why i say it's a sad day for the senate, a sad day for america. >> mr. president? >> the majority leader. >> illegally appointed. why did president obama recess appoint cordray and the two nlrb members? because republicans had blocked them. blocked them, blocked them, blocked them. n

this is a little bit more like final passage in that this is before something becomes law and goes to the president's desk. and here again, we see rarely used until the early 1970's and then explosion. and then not for deep personal principle but for paralysis. i have found it quite interesting to hear some of my colleagues say, this was the constitutional design, the senate be a supermajority chamber. that is beyond out of sync with american history or any -- any facts. and they say, well, isn't there a story about george washington talking with thomas jefferson and george washington says, "you know, the senate's meant to be the cooling saucer and, therefore, wasn't the senate always a supermajority body?" and the answer is, well, no. it wasn't a supermajority body. as i've demonstrated by these charts, it was very rare before 1970 to oppose a final majority vote. and when it was done, it was done for principle. and when it was done, people took this floor -- they didn't have to but they took this floor and they explained themselves to their colleagues and the american public. becaus
